## Summary

**An inclusive regional AI strategy in the Americas.** This resolution would push U.S. policy to promote AI that reduces racial and other biases, protects civil rights and democracy, and directs investment in AI education and infrastructure across the Western Hemisphere. The Impact: - Families, children, and civil rights advocates would see a focus on protecting privacy, equal access, and civil liberties by applying principles from the White House AI Bill of Rights and citing studies of racial bias in facial recognition. - Underrepresented communities and researchers would be urged to participate more in AI design and decision making to improve representation and reduce biased outcomes. - Workers and students across the Western Hemisphere would benefit from calls for U.S. economic and development agencies to fund AI education, training, and infrastructure to expand opportunities and regional growth. - U.S. policymakers and regional partners would be pushed toward a coordinated Regional AI Strategy, international agreements, and shared ethical frameworks with organizations like the Organization of American States and the Inter-American Development Bank to set standards and counter “digital colonialism”.
